    Power8 - Start menu replacer for Windows 8

    skallal, as well as blocking Metro this will be an intrusion to the system (undesirable because we declare Power8 as non-invasive solution). Technically it is possible, but I'd like to have RTM version first. And the settings window. Anyway this should be on the top of features list for 1.5.

    Power8 - Start menu replacer for Windows 8

    Hi Hopachi, I can see three ideas behind your question, and try to answer all three. 1) Yes, you need to click those buttons to expand them, they won't expand on hovering; 2) Not only click, you can use your keyboard as well, Power8 is fully operational only with your keyboard; 3) Yes, items...

    Power8 - Start menu replacer for Windows 8

    Hi Haxid, How long did you wait for P8's Main Button to appear when launched it fort he first time? What OS do you use? What's the Windows theme selected? How is the TaskBar located? What you describe is completely weird because files in MSI and 7Z are identical, MSI was introduced only for...

    Power8 - Start menu replacer for Windows 8

    All seems to be in place. Only one thing. Does Windows Control Panel displays CMedia CPL same way as Power8 (same icon and Chinese name)? If not, can u plz attach export of the next registry branches: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace...

    Power8 - Start menu replacer for Windows 8

    While "CMedia Control Panel" is a separate app, it has a Control Panel element linked. At startup, Power8 scans ControlPanel items in the system and interacting with them. And this caused problem because it did not return data when it was expected, but just left the values passed in place...
